Mrwhite09: lately, I have been thinking that for my life to change I must get married. I have been living in squalor for so long. Maybe when I get married and have another mouth to feed, I will have more derive to excape poverty. Hohestly I am tired of all these sapa that I am facing. Your reason for desiring marriage is flawed. You don't tow this path to escape poverty, because in actual sense, unless your wife is wealthy, you may be faced with more precarious situations. That being said, |

Nazgul: I suspected it was National grid with the way the light went off. The current just kept reducing until it vanished. I sha hope they haven't spoilt my appliances.
But on a more serious note. This is the 3rd time this grid has collapsed in less than a week.
Someone told me that Nigeria is heading towards total blackout. I'm beginning to believe him. Same thought I nursed with the way thr power went out. It was restored some hours ago and all is good. Hope you didn't suffer any loss? |

Your suggestions are welcome on how to treat this. Sorry, love. Get well soon! |

They have sold their souls Your context, in this case, is flawed. Painting this man as a bsd governor is not fair. Under his watch, Kaduna state enjoyed good leadership. If all our leaders would emulate this man, we won't be where we are today. |

Maeve7: Are you ready for your kid(s) to live in a different place than you do?
Are you ready to not be part of their daily life?
Are you ready to accept that your baby mama will move in with her new partner and your kids will live with another man?
Are you sure your baby mama will be peaceful and not bring drama into your life? Let me also build on the last one: Is he ready to suffer severe hate from his kids due to the baby mama saying bad things about him? Is he ready to assume a new middle name,"deadbeat"? Digressing from that... Is he ready to suffer severe loneliness and sadness at old age without a partner, children or grandchildren to warm his heart? Assuming he d*es in his sleep, is his cadaver ready to be found days after? |

accused: These are narrative from friends all around me since I declare my intention that guy it's time I settle down for marriage,but I keep hearing this same words from friends and even my guys abroad. That guy I re very lucky . forget that move and look for a baby mama. It's funny how those who are married are advising you not to tow that path. Why are they not considering divorce? Marriage is just like a Mango fruit. If you choose the right/ripe one, you would enjoy every bit of it. Thus my advise for yo is to marry right. Remember that love is not enough. As a matter of fact, love is the least important ingredient. Look out for compatibility, value, friendship, synergy and do not sweep under the carpet what you consider key. Need I also say that with the economic reality, ensure that you are financially stable and your partner is financially independent before considering marriage. Investment must greatly supercede liabilities. All the best! |

EreluRoz: What are you doing in the market as a man? Men that goes to the market are very stingy and aggressive. I dislike men that would open eyes to everything and won't allow women to be women peacefully.
You should have a woman maybe a market woman that get your things for you. There is no crime in assisting your partner run local errands. |
Business › Re: See what I experience with a market woman today by Juliearth(f): 2:15am On Sep 30, 2024 |
Born2winnx: I just left the market just now not too far from my house, can you believe I wanted to buy fresh fish so I can prepare something nice for myself this evening to go through the weekend. Madam how much you dey sell your fish, she brought one out and said 7k..I was surprised and ask for one? She say ehh.. you go buy me join.
Never in my life have I felt insulted with the way she said it, this is someone that all what she's selling in the basin is not up to the sandal i have on my leg putting on.
I wanted to give her gbas gbos but had a second thought, due to the economy of the country people Will have false impression of the whole thing.. maybe I don't have money to afford her market meanwhile it's different scenario of someone who doesn't know how to talk at all.. I just left her shade.
This is not the first time I have encountered this kind of market women and sometimes they will make you feel as if you came to beg for their goods.
You might be seeing them hustling and struggling in hot sun and cold weather and feel sorry but if this people tell you word you reason your life the whole day.
Nlfpmod The economy is crunching hard. Not only buyers but also sellers, are at the receiving end. So it's best not to take such utterance to mind. If you can read through her mind, you would understand why she towed that line. |

I cook something like this, though not as rich!
If one were to prepare this as Potato soup from the start, how would you prepare it? Good to know that you share in this experience. I'm quite lost with the potato recipe. Do you mean Irish potatoes? If yes, you have a number of recipe to try as such. The closest would be Chicken curry sauce, with Irish used as thickening base or a mixed veggies-chicken-irish potatoes sauce or fresh fish peppersoup garnished with Irish. There is no rule of thumb when it comes to cooking so you can be as creative as a chameleon. |

The way you destroy people but act like you are their help. That kind of manipulative destruction.
Any help please. Learn to master the act of stoicism. Block out every emotion and assess only when it's convenient for you. That way, you would know when to assist or not. |

richmond500: As for me, lunch is not part of my meals again.
It's not like I can't provide lunch but that will put me in tight budget and I may not have something to save at the end of the day. L Even though I make a little above 100k in profits. In Nigeria, if you earn N100k in places like Rivers state, Bruh u are broke, and I begin to feel bad for those earning around 50k, ona deh try. I am on Intermittent Fast. Though not entirely inspired by sapa, but a drive to stay fit, it has enabled me to have some extra cash to spare. One wholesome meal a day, backed up by fruits or a snack cuts it for me. Weekends are exempted from this plan though. |

authentic18: 3. Well all my life I’ve had only one good Nigerian out of the multiple Nigerian women I encountered She’s decent looking with a wonderful heart She’s married now with kids She wanted to introduce me to her parents etc, she was raised very well. I had to let her go because I didn’t have money & women have shorter fertility window than guys
4. I’ve interacted with a number of them They even have worse issues character wise than Nigerians Very hard to find an American without some kind of mental illness, most smoke, use some kinda drugs or are alcoholics. It’s hard to find one that’s just regular with no piercings, no tattoos, mentally stable etc It’s just to gain access to the American economy that’s all. The opportunities there are enormous, you can’t even get some remote jobs because our Nigerian addresses are blacklisted by firms over there. Tinubu & Buhari destroyed our economy at home, the naira has lost significant value. Limited opportunities for a huge population. Some people are resorting to fraud etc and I’m not built for that If an American chick likes you, she can fly to wherever you are and take huge steps to help you level up And a man is naturally wired to serve in return That’s one thing whites or latinas do Nigerian women date largely on the basis of class You must be better than them Classism culture, Nigerian women are copying African American women gradually People are on survival mode here so I really can’t blame anybody The wealthy women here have egos and can be very disrespectful
5. There are a lot of lessons in Dune for guys The evolution of a boy to a man The last movie I watched more than 5 times was the Moses type of film that came out in 2015. Exodus: gods & kings Game of Thrones too Yes I found Dune 1 & 2 interesting Saying this about your mum on a public forum is not nice at all. I think you should edit that part out so people won't use it against you in future. Our parents are sacred and should serve as our gods on earth. |

Christianity Etc › Re: Awake by Juliearth(f): 4:27am On Sep 17, 2024 |
authentic18: I never thought this would happen to me 1st time I had sleep paralysis was at 26 Never had that more than two or three times I sometimes sleep with my arms crossed over my chest if I lay on my back Most times I sleep sideways
About two years ago a new tenant moved into our street & I’ve got my windows facing theirs. They sometimes performed some kind of exorcism whenever they were praying out loud it seems This went on for 2 years I concluded someone living there was possessed. The tenant in question moved out two months ago I also slept with a strange girl about that period they left
I’m in my 30’s, unmarried, the country’s situation is harsh so I don’t see how one would get married and take care of kids when life is becoming expensive. About 2 weeks ago, a 10 ft demon came to me in the middle of the night acting all jealous and screaming at me while attacking I couldn’t move. This was worse than the regular sleep paralysis people have It was dark shadowed about 10 ft And I was like, what do I even have that the demon was all furious and jealous yelling at me And then something probably flying off
Moments later I saw my spirit leaving my body, it was going up then I got reattached to my body On YouTube, i saw something relating to silver cord attached to the human body I struggle to sleep at night ever since I hear dark spirits operate at night I’m never fornicating again until I get married since that incident occurred It’s also extremely hard to find good women these days as most of them are on survival mode looking for who to latch to Just feels parasitic instead of symbiotic I had one or two white girls who offered to help me out in the past in exchange for marriage but I declined back then because i thought I could get out of predicaments on my own It’s in mens DNA to solve problems and feel useful, which in turn improves confidence I regret that decision
My conclusion 1. Don’t live close to a possessed person or where exorcism of any sort is carried out 2. Fornication possibly opens up demonic potholes for evil spirits to access you. The girl I slept with is one I’d never have done it on a regular, it’s because I was frustrated. Like she smokes heavily, into drugs and is into selling her body. I never hang around cigarettes or weed 3. An American latina who I used to talk to once indirectly told me she went to get tarot card readings on me after we had a quarrel I heard spirits also attack married couples Never thought this would befall me until it got to my doorstep. The spiritual world is very real 4. I watched Dune 1 & 2 more than 10 times, more than I should have. The movie probably has strange parts & noises, culture appropriation, incantations etc
I really don’t know how to pray besides the most complete Lord’s Prayer I hope I never experience this again Just imagine a 10ft gigantic demon beating one up and sucking one’s life force I woke up feeling ill for days Took a little while to process what I had gone through Don’t know who I offended Not a religious person This is no joke, just pray you never get to experience it A number of Americans on YouTube said they’ve experienced what happened to me when I did a little search Demons, spirit spouses etc are real There are people who appear healthy physically , have nice financial portfolio too but are going through ridiculous things in the spiritual realm Unless you are spiritually strong, you are right about number 1. Number 2 is a known fact and this is not even dependent on whether your partner is possessed or not. 3. What kind of women do you date  Seems you have a thing for foreigners. Be careful though so you don't delve from frying pan to fire. 4. Is the movie a good watch? |

Flywheel212: So I met this guy like three years ago and within a year I noticed he was keeping me on a low so I felt he wasn't serious with me and I had a discussion with him that if he isn't interested in something more it's best we go our separate ways since I wanted a serious relationship which will eventually lead to marriage, he cried and begged that he was serious, things went on still no formal introduction to his family members or friends. Then he started making plans to travel, I was part of it, the plan was for us to get married then travel together, before I knew it he became secretive and and avoiding me, fast forward to some months back he called me on a WhatsApp call crying for me to forgive him that he was abroad and doesn't know what came over him and why he couldn't tell me, he claims he is still in love with me and wants us to work, without a promise as to what all this will lead to, he wants us to lean on hope for the best. My dear, the signs are glaring. Apparently, he is using the word, "love" to keep you in check. If he loves you, would he travel without you? Did you contribute financially towards the trip? If yes, then there goes your answer. |

Natbrowny: Y'all need to understand emotional intelligence and boundaries
Love for mother is different from love for wife
Ur mother was married into the home by ur father, same way u married a lady as a wife into ur home
Mostly - wife and mother will not give a man any issues if there is respect for boundaries.
U cannot love one more than the other. They are seperate and the feelings n emotions dey breed are different. If u don't love ur wife enuff, ur kids will feel it. U cannot unlove ur mother too. God bless you for this. Emotional intelligence is key to a successful union. An emotionally intelligent spouse won't asked who should be loved more or less. |
